Appearance:
Alexander is usually either wearing his armor or a more casual outfit. Though rather standard, his casual outfit does include the wolf-pelt cloak from the beast he killed during the Proving. He doesn't wear anything particularly flashy, preferring a more plain look. He has various scars from the years, though most aren't anything special. The most notable is the scar over his right eye.

Personality:
Alexander is a kind soul, though this rarely extends to many beyond his family. Both protective and loyal to his family, he will not hesitate to help should they be in need. To those he trusts and cares about, he is rather outgoing and friendly. Often with a smile, and eager to see them laugh. Working with his younger siblings to help them learn in various areas he may have knowledge. He also much likes to read and learn about things himself, in between his duties as a knight. As such, he has become quite literate and will also assist his siblings in learning to read as well. Those close would also find that Alexander is quite the romantic, though he never particularly has been the kind to flirt around.
To those not within that circle he trusts, Alexander is rather reserved. Opting instead to remain quiet, yet polite, for those around him. Though this certainly is not to be confused with being meek, as he carries himself with an air of confidence. Some may mistake this confidence for arrogance, but that is of little concern to him. In combat, he is rather brave, though he prefers to keep himself calm to have a clear mind. Something Alexander believes provides an edge over the opponent, and played a part in earning him the 'fearless' title. Alexander can also be extremely slow to trust those he is not known with, and doesn't particularly hide his opinions of others. Yet he is still always polite to others, thinking it beneficial.

The History:
Born just before midnight on May the 4th, Alexander Marric is the elder of the Marric twins, by only a matter of minutes. Throughout his youth, Alexander was fascinated by knights, and everything about them. Their stories of heroism, bravery, and even the way the way their armor looked. So from a young age, Alexander had decided that he would be a knight. He had always been rather close to his siblings, though none came even remotely close to the bond that Alex shares with his twin, Meera. The two grew up together, and often were seen playing around the castle, whenever their duties permitted. From an early age, Alex also showed interest in learning to read and write. In his spare time, such as after mother had told him to go to sleep, he could often times be found with his nose buried in a book of some sort.
Over the years, Alex grew stronger and quite adept in martial arts. Occasionally he would make time to spend with his younger siblings, and helping with their educations wherever he could. Then the day came for Alexander's Proving. Released into the forest, the boy almost immediately encountered trouble. Not long after he had been left alone, Alexander encountered a lone wolf that seemed to be dead set on having him as a meal. He was able to just barely defend himself, both the wolf and himself were injured in their fight and retreated to recuperate from their wounds. This was not the end of the boy's battle, as on both the second and third day he heard the sounds of something stalking him through the forest. On the fourth day, Alexander was resting to clean his leg wound when the beast suddenly surged into the clearing. Another battle followed, in which both the boy and beast were injured once more. Alexander knew he didn't have long before his wounds would become lethal in this environment, and as such decided to risk travel during the night. The next day, as he sat for a brief rest, his foe appeared once more. Seemingly enraged at being held off twice now. In their fight, the beast pinned Alexander and went for the kill. However the boy managed to drive his dagger through its eye, catching it by surprise. Not long after, the beast was dead. On the sixth day of his proving, Alexander returned home. Dragging a dead wolf, and with wounds covering his body that required immediate attention.
Since that day, Alex has kept the pelt of the wolf as cloak. A trophy of his victory over the beast. The pelt, along with a few scars across his chest and his face are the reminders of his proving. Since then, he had become a sworn shield for House Marric. Taking part in a few battles here and there, earning himself the moniker of fearless, as he stood firm in times others would've ran in fear.

[ Skills and Gear]

Skills and various Traits:
Alexander is a rather skilled and experienced fighter. His main choice for combat is wielding his bastard sword with a two handed grip. However, Alexander does have experience with using a lance. Alexander usually does not carry a shield into battle, relying more on his armor for protection. Alexander has mastered the usage of his weapon to a good degree. He is capable of fighting from horseback, and has no particular problems with it. When it comes to archery, Alexander is most certainly not the best shot.
Alexander knows a bit about military tactics and strategies, one of his favored fields of study. He likes to read, and has become rather literate in doing so. As such, he is also quite capable of writing. Though some of his siblings do tease him over the quality of his handwriting. Alexander is very patient, and has also learned to keep himself calm during a fight. He is also quite good at reading opponents during combat, telling what they are about to do.
List of weapons.
Name:
Guardian
Description:
A bastard sword forged for Alexander, he has grown very attached to the weapon. Named Guardian because he uses it to protect those he cares about, Alexander makes sure to take proper care of his weapon. Thus it is still in rather good shape. He wields this weapon rather efficiently, preferring a two handed-grip as it puts more power behind his attacks.
Appearance:
Name:
Alexander's Dagger
Description:
A simple dagger which Alex uses as a multipurpose roll. Whatever need he might have for a dagger, this one fits in.
Appearance:
List of armour or attire.
Name:
Alexander's Armor
Description:
Alexander's armor is made from Linen clothing, padded jacket and pants, and a chainmail vest with boiled leather over it. This combination helps lessen damage that blades from slashing through or piercing the armor might cause, as the boiled leather and chainmail work well together, it however does not mean he can be careless. Then the padded jacket and pants help keep blunt trauma from causing too big an issue. He does not wear a cape with his armor, and only sometimes will don the helmet.
